THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 26, IHHUIHMUHHUHM Mrs. George C. Bill, 'Editor. Selene Armstrong, Mrs. Psul E. Wilkes, Assl » ,im »* WOMAN’S INTERESTS COMPENSATION. And what, Indeed, If this be all— This little span of earthly years With fleeting hopes and transient tears. With froth of fame and dregs of tears ? What if I have no deathless soul. But, with the ceasing of life's stress (In spite of priestly lips that bless), I sink down into nothingness. Beyond the coffin and the somber pall. To hear and answer no Immortal call? !Could I complain If this should be? Nay, still I'd owe no grudge to fate, No bitter grievance could I prate. Nor cry that naught would compen sate. For what if I had never known The surge of life, Its thrill divine. The strength of strife, hope's star- white sign. The bitter-sweet of love’s red wine? Ah, what If. thru some trick of destiny. I'd missed this wondrous ajveet mortal- ity! , _ —Sara Beaumont Kennedy, In Decem ber New Age. MRS. VA8SAR WOOLLEY’S DINNER A pleasant affair of the week in hon or of Mrs. M. A.
